We see your Coastal Grandmother aesthetic in all her chic, elegant glory, and we raise you – the Coastal Granddaughter. The playful yet girly trend (think Belly in The Summer I Turned Pretty meets Euro summer style) has been making its way onto everyone’s FYP in time for summer. It follows the basic principles of the Coastal Grandmother – nautical colours, stripes, linens and pretty much anything you’d want to look chic in at the beach, but this aesthetic gives it a bit more of a youthful spin.
From must-have beauty staples to those important beachy fashion pieces, we present you with the *ultimate* Coastal Granddaughter starter pack…just in time for your summer vaycay.
